Company Statement

Zeehan Zinc was incorporated in Tasmania, Australia on 13 August 1999 as a proprietary and registered company limited by shares with the name Zeehan Zinc Pty Ltd (CAN 089 093 943). On 5 July 2001, the Company converted to a public company and changed its name to Zeehan Zinc Limited.

The Company acquired the entire issued share capital of Oceania Tasmania and ZZ Exploration from a group of which Malcolm Bendall  was a part owner. Mr Bendall and partners had originally established Oceania Tasmania in 1980 to undertake ore exploration and extraction. Oceania Tasmania currently holds four of the five Mining Leases held by the Group and it is intended that it will primarily undertake the development of the resources, mining and processing of the minerals once production is ready to commence.

ZZ Exploration holds one of the Group’s Mining Leases, the Mining Lease application and all of the Exploration Licenses and it is intended that it will focus primarily on exploration activities, including the further investigation and discovery of possible resources within the tenements held by the Group. Activity will include geophysical surveys, sample drilling, the commissioning of geological reports and the definition of resources under JORC.

Zeehan Zinc Administration was incorporated on 13 December 2006 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Zeehan Zinc with principal purpose of managing the administration functions of the Group.

Zeehan Zinc Properties was incorporated on 21 March 2007 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Zeehan Zinc with a principal purpose of managing property assets of the Group.
